Dog Stranded on Roof Rescued

A dog wandering on top of a roof in Vancouver, Washington has finally been rescued and reunited with his owner.

When Sgt. 1st Class Bennet Musau got home after dropping his wife at work, he noticed that one of his dogs went missing. He looked around the neighborhood for the four-year-old Chihuahua mix called Brownie but sadly he had to go to work without knowing where his dog had gone.

Bennet said their dogs are part of their family and they’re just like other kids. He even posted photos of Brownie on his Facebook wall and slept on the front porch hoping to catch a sight of him.

By Tuesday morning, he found out where his dog went; he had traveled five blocks north and was found trotting on top of a rooftop. Homeowner Barry Klettke reported the incident and a Clark County Animal Control officer responded. The officer was able to lure the dog to him using chunks of hotdog.

He and his children were overjoyed to be reunited with their little escape artist at the Humane Society.
